CURRENT MISSION

Having Albert Einstein's hair style when I grow old

ABOUT ME

I am frail with a sickly pallor, heavily lidded eyes, and a disingenuous, even malicious disposition. I have a debilitating disease which has left me bed-ridden so I need my bedpan changed daily.

No I'm just kidding. I don't know how to describe myself. Pictures do part of the job, actually meeting me will do the rest.

Likes:
ANY feature of nature
Having books that make me look well-learned
Most sports and games
Surrealism--in any shape and size

Dislikes:
Mean people
Obnoxiously overt Christian rock music
Lima beans
That overly-testosterone-afflicted-alpha-male mentality aka douche-bag frat guys (nice frat guys, you're the exception).

PHILOSOPHY

Rudolf Steiner and Khalil Gibran, gently stirred until creamy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen pink dolphins in the Amazon, going about their pink dolphin business. I've also seen the stars at night in Machu Picchu.

Life Pro Tip: when you take a hot shower, hang a wrinkled dress shirt on the outside of the shower rod. The steam from the shower will smooth out the wrinkles. Good for when you're on the road.

Also! All heavy elements in the universe were created in the dying gasps of gigantic stars as they exploded in supernovae. Many of the atoms in your body literally come from star dust.
